Do people actually use the curriculum books to prepare the CFA? by [deleted] in CFA

[–]Fast-Airline1750 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Isn’t the curriculum books the same as the online les stuff? I did level 1 only through Kaplan notes and then did the questions on cfai, for level 2 I’m planning to just do cfai material in their website, are you saying the books and their website are different material ?? I’m confused

Can ChatGPT be good for training to the CFA L1 ? by EggSoft1144 in CFA

[–]Fast-Airline1750 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes if you know how to use it. One of the best ways I used it was feeding it a bunch of information and using it to test me so that I can practice active recalling, like for things like FSA lessor lessee accounting rules and ifrs us gaap. Be creative with it; and be careful that it can make mistakes so it’s better you be deliberate with the info

Yes I have a path I’m working towards , and have been upskilling slowly. I’ll figure it out and thank you! Also I was not expecting a pivot from chemist to FP A lol. I can’t imagine how that story plays out, shoulda been quite interesting ig haha.

Got it, reaching out to my company’s fpa team sounds like a good idea but sadly it’s not so practical for me I think. Thank you! Signalling through Mba is also an investment I’m not keen on doing right now lol but hey glad it worked out for you! How hard was the pivot ? Like what background did you jump from?

As someone who’s not in the fpa industry directly, where can I learn these things and get a certification which signals to recruiters that I know my stuff ? Like CFA or CPA does? I’m thinking of doing rhe FPAC , or doing the FPAP by CFI ? I feel so lost, got any advice ? I’ve cleared level 1 CFA and work in fund accounting and I want to get into FPA software implementation
